How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Ylang Cananga, blue is Rawnaq. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Agarwood (Oud)Why it might work
- Light over deepRawnaq brings green, citrus and aromatic; Ylang Cananga brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody and floral run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ylang Cananga is moderate on both, Rawnaq very weak and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointYlang Cananga first, then Rawnaq over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
